THE DARKEST HOUR.

For a period Of four years I've been a
victim of a very severe and agonizing case
of Salt Rheum, which affected my hands to
such an extent that they almost become a
burden.
My hand became raw and horrifying, COM
polling me to keep it covered all the time.
I've spent hunrdeds of dollars for various
preparations, bnt instead of benefting my
condition, they all seemed to stimulate and
encourage the progress of the miserable dis.
ease, until l had about given up all hope.
But thank heaven, " the darkest hour is
Just before day" and l am rejoiced to know
that a positive cure has been found, which
is known as B. B. B.-Botanic Blood Balm.
My family rejoice at its magical curative
powers in giving me relief. My hand has
been cured and resembles a burnt surface
after being heated over, more than any.
thing else. 1t has also cured my two chill.
dren of a loathesome form Of Itch which
had resisted all previous treatments. / re.

THE CONVENTION.

The convention of the State Tenn
perance Alliance held in Nashville
this week was a very forcible demon
stration of the claim of prohibition
lists that their aus is not dead, and
that they are not in the least discour-
aged blythe defeat of the amendment.
We have never before seer such a
body of men together so earnest and
determined in their work, so unan-
imous in purpose, and so harmonious
in action. 1t was good for a prohibit
ZIONIST to be there. After witnessing
the scenes of the two days c%onsulta-
ton one could feel nothing else but
pride in being a prohibitionist, and
can have no cause for fears of the fu-
ture. We were most agreeably sur
prised at the numerical strength OF
the convention, at the unanimity OF
opinion among the delegates, and at
the harmony and good will which
characterized all the proceedings. II
was by no means a noisy, b~oisterous
gathering, but an intense enthusiasm
was noticeable throughout all the
sessions. There was not the slightest
manifestation of a third party spirit
We want the committee to print @
hundred or two copies of the second
resolution on indestructible paper anG
furnish them to a lot of little 3x9 ed
ftors and politicians in the State t.
paste in their hats. The prohibition
lists OF Tennessee want prohibition
and nothing else, They have no in
clination whatever to interfere will
existing party lines.
